I am well aare of how Israel claimed its turf. But now it is their turf and they have every right to defend it and keep it theirs.
I find the Israelis to be the most civilized of cultures in the middle east despite the manner in which they attained their independence.
They merealy won their revolution in the same manner we won ours. By death, destruction, terror, and not a little bloodshed.
They would not have attained it any other way. Nor would we.
War is in itself "terror" Can terror be defeated? Yes it can or at least its primary practitioners can be given reason to pause and reflect to what degree they wish to continue.
All that is necessary is to take of the kid gloves and do a little murder here an there. War is after all nothing more that organized murder. Murder enough terrorists and those who support them and you in effect do indeed win or at least set the effort back far enough for another generation or two to live in relative peace and harmony.
That is all Israel wants. That is all we want. That is why today both the US and the UK support Israel. Allies often make strange bedfellows do they not?
